who ever says WH was good, is clearly *** kissing BW. This DLC was "Oh so epic ending, was about morrigan". Unless what i played was different from everyone else lol. this was more of a, Hey you, someone stole my book. blah blah blah, hi there morrigan, *seriously in real time 2mins, maybe less* bye morrigan or off we go. End lol cmon really?

But i'm not gonna judge anything untill its infront of me. They can pretty much do anything in the story they want. that gate could be a time machine lol who knows. One thing tho, If this is placed one year after, she would... still be pregnant maybe or JUST had the baby.... She talked as if she knew its personality as if the child is grown up alrdy or something... wtf kinda sence did this dlc make.... NONE!

I guess good mothers always leave the newborns at home alone cuz god knows, she aint got no ****ing friends to take care of em lol.

so unless by some chance DA2's char is somehow morrigans baby. I wont be playing it if its some random guy we have to play as.

@Lethvienne and ADAM

Guys I do respect your opinion and the moviment itself, but just let me put my point of veiw to you.
For better or worse, Bioware, like mostly (if not all) game developers do it for money, its their WORK.
Ofcourse, we are the costumers, so we buy what we like, but nonetheless, for a video game, dragon age: Origins and Awakenings (i'm not going into Pencil and Paper RPG where the story and the world itself are tailored for around 4 players only.
For bioware, its not "our Warden" its "the Warden" (in a generic way) the "our" part came as we tailor then as we please, kudos for the devs being able to make us feel that way.
Bioware diferernt from a Pencil and Papper RPG, have schedules, a certain amount of money EA provides and they try to make the best of it, of course its their's wallet on the game, we like it, we buy they get paid.
Hawke and DA2 are an attempt to narrow some of the variables, in my veiw at least, so they have a solid ground to work on (hawke) and can focus more on the choices along the story. In origins they have to make variables and believable stories and plots for each race, class and gender to become the warden, and that takes time.
It worked wonders with Mass Effect, hopefully it will make the same effect on DA2.

that's that.

For a more deeper experience, NOTHING I repeat NOTHING will never surpass the good PnP RPG (Being dnd, storyteller, whatever system) and a good Dungeon Master as Narrator, that way the story will be of OUR "wardens" or whatever we create.


It's still not an insurance company Necrom. I'm sure Bioware want people to love their games and it still makes sense that they do from a financial point of view. BW have just been faced with a big moral quandry of their own and have selected a few too many of the evil conversation options.

I'm sure you're right about good RPG groups - unfortunately I've never found one because all the real RPers I've ever met are unwelcoming, grim dwarf obsessives - so it's PC games for me.

Oh dear, just finished playing Witch Hunt and as much as I enjoyed it, I think I missed the ending.



Oh I see, there is no ending xD



So, according to the end of awakening, my character disappears, finds Morrigan only to see her walk through a glowing mirror, and then disappears again...? Ok.. o.O

For the life of me I can never get over the audacity of some people telling a narrarator how to tell their story.


There can be levels of impertinence but you're not playing an RPG as an RPG, it's also our story. I also take it that you didn't hand over your cash to play this game? I'm not a great fan of working out imagined rights about what you can or can't do, but Bioware have said on these forums that opinions are welcome.

That was a lame excuse for an ending to DA:O. There should've been More Morrigan.

I already made the A.D.A.M. The Anti-Dragon Age II Movement! Sign up! Anti-Dragon Age II is, of course, Anti-Hawke by default. I mean, he IS the reason we're all so opposed to this alleged 'sequel'.

Oooh... Maybe I'll make an A.D.A.M website! :D

Who wants to join? *gets out pen and paper*

There's a huge gap between the advertising and the delivered Witch Hunt DLC. Look on the Homepage http://dragonage.bio...dao/witch_hunt/ one Key Feature is: Confront Morrigan in this dramatic conclusion to the Origins storyline.

And tell me: How much of the DLC was about Morrigan?

Ok Bioware,almost everyone has stated how "meh" or bad this dlc was so I am afraid you are going to...HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN but better capiche?



This just wont do,what were you thinking of? it's an awful dlc and charging 560 bw points is an insult and basically false advertising right?



Back I say,back to the dev pc's and do it all again rthis time with some gameplay and a proper story.

Damn, Gamespot and IGN recommend not buying this DLC, Gamespot very strongly so. Shameful, because they even said that Darkspawn Chronicles was worth checking out and that has been seen as the weakest link thus far in their DA:O DLCs. This was supposed to be "Epic." Hopefully, Bioware pulls through with something of Broken Steel proportions to correct this before DAII arrives.

I doubt most agree the DR ending will be the cannon ending. In fact I think, considering your major choices will be imported from DA1 that the 'cannon ending' will be a likely result of whatever your warden did (therefor no cannon ending persay). I think you underestimate the amount of people who refused the DR ending because it's cheapens the game and flies against the morality of their character. Seriously, how many of you ran across Thedas for most of the game the valiant do-gooder  just to pull a 180 and sac your unborn child to some ritual with some chick who's been lying to you the whole time just to save your own butt?

I


Well, as a do-gooder, my warden nonetheless did the DR because of the somewhat underhand and slightly dubious nature of recruitment to the Grey Wardens. You know the format, in which the truth about how it would affect your own life is not revealed until its too late, ( ie, joining will kill you slowly and horribly ) and the fate of those who decided last minute, it wasn't the career path they had in mind and thus wanted to leave was instant dismissal ( a sword in the gut )

Duncan's less than impressive rhetoric about why he had to kill Jory and that effectively  being the fate for all who decide they don't want to drink, and the fate of those who do is not much better, left her with a queasy feeling about the whole blood cult known as "The Grey Wardens".

She did the job though because greater needs must and all that stuff. But she was not happy about being lied to, or having that kind of truth kept from her. Initially she imagined it would be just like signing up for a special task force when the idea of the Wardens was put to her. Duncan's summary exuction of Jory, for no other reason that he was scared and thus wanted to go back home to his wife and expectant child hit her really hard and so did the realisation, after being effectively forced to drink the blood on pain of death, that it would kill her anyway.

So she did her duty, took out the Arch Demon but given all that, didn't feel she had to then sacrifcie her life for that kind of secretive organisation then and there, she could do far more good living, so took the opportunity Morrigan presented to her..

So heck no, choosing to have the warden live and do the DR does not cheapen the game, not at all.

Lol! A.D.A.M is just something that started as my little joke on the forums.:lol:

It's an acronym for Anti-Dragon Age II Movement. For those of us who either want the Warden over Hawke, or who want the freedom to create all new characters of our own choice (and with our choice of race) rather than having BioWare's ready made human character (Hawke) forced on us. We also maintain that BioWare shouldn't be able to just break their promise of 2 years of DA:O content and replace it with poorly made, rush jobs like Witch Hunt.

We feel that the Warden's story at least deserves more closure. ^_^


Sadly, one of the reasons they have elected to keep character choice in DA 2 to just the human race is likely as a result of one of the 'improvements' being made in DA 2. Ie, that of giving the PC character a voice over.

Had they allowed player to choose to be a dwarf ( deeper, rougher voice )  ( and possibly an elf,  with a slighty higher pitched 'elven voice' based on all in game NPC elves ) they would have had to hire a different voice actor for the main character dialogue for each of these races.

Therefore resulting in a great deal more work for Bioware, recording the same main character dialogue two or three time, with two or three different actors for each sex ) and a lot more expense as a result.

One reason why it was for them, easier to just stick with 'human'

Well, that's incorrect. There is a great deal of press release material out there from Bioware that uses the phrase "Your Warden", so that's the impression they were selling to customers and fans.

Take this very DLC for example, in which the trailer clearly states "Your Wardens Final Quest", note...not "the Wardens"

There is a sense of ownership right there that Bioware are trying to instill in the player.

It's different this time round for DA 2, in which it has not yet been stated that its "Your Hawke". Its just about "Hawke". Or that you play as a character called "Hawke"

But no implied sense of the personal.

Has anyone else gotten the (Unauthorized) label on their DLC of WitchHunt? After downloading it off of the site, I updated the game and loaded the DLC with the DAOUpdater. Once I logged in however, I checked the DLC section and it says unauthorized. Any suggestions?

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the developers for DA2 said that you can customize the "Hawke" character.  For example, I believe they said that Hawke can be male/female and that you can customize the appearance.  If that's true then there is hope that we can become attached to our own personalized version of Hawke as we did with our Warden.  Did anyone else read that or am I just hallucinating?Image IPB

I finished DA:O and downloaded the Witch hunt DLC. I completed it as well and for some strange reason, I can't seem to import my character over to Awakening which I was intending to start. Did any encounter similar problem like me? Or is it just me? This is so annoying as the experience and level up that I gained during the Witch Hunt DLC cannot be imported.

Found the easiest way to avoid the bug it would seem {smilie}.

After killing the Archdemon in Origins, you go back to the castle blah blah, BEFORE you EXIT the castle because "The people want to see there Hero blah blah {smilie}", SAVE the game. LOAD THIS save file and it doesnt act like you backtracked. Witch Hunt 'ending' bug never came about. {smilie}

If you DID in fact deny the Dark Ritual, then save as normal in camp or what ever, because the bug will act as if you avoided it anyway. So, no harm no foul. I tested this method twice, with two characters. Seems to be all good {smilie}.

Hope this helps some one{smilie}


Ok this worked for me as a Queen Cousland who did the DR and was bugged before.


Sweet , I got it right mwahahaha :D
